Bath VS.. Gardiner,

The game of base ball yesterday between
the Baths and GARDENERS at Gardiner, was
forfeited to the latter team by score of nine
to nothing. At the end of the fifth innings
the score was equal. In the first halt of the
sixth, Schofield got his base on being hit by
pitched hall. He started to steal second
but was thrown out at that base BY Hutchins,
Moore touching him out. In sliding TO tie
base he dislodged it from its position aud al
though retaining his hold on it the umpire
declared him out. The Baths Indignantly
protested against the decision, but the umpire
remaining firm they left the field. The UNI
pre then gave the game to Gardiner by a
score of nine to nothing. The game was
well contested on either side, although some
what slow. Both batteries did well, Brown
and Dunning getting little the best of it.
For Bath, Fi;z distinguished himself by maxi
ing two tw o baggers, while Fsrnbam assisted
in double play, making beautiful throw to
first from left field. For Gardiner, Moor
play good game all round and Dale and
Hutchns accomplished the feat of stealing
home. There was a large attendance. The
following is the score by innings:

An exchange says: "There will be peach.
es enough for all this season. There is an
abundant supply, prices will be low. and the
quality better than last year. Although some
have already appeared in the market, they
will not be in full supply until early in Au-
gust" This is is q great relief. In other
years housekeepers have been kept in an
agony of suspense for many weeks before the
peach season by narrowing tales about the
poor prospects and short crop. Now we are
told in advance that season of plenty is at
hand, and that we may feast on this luscious
irait and not be "dead broke"

Prohibition In Texas.
GTribune,1

On the 4th of August the most stirring OF
campaigns will be decided, and the people OF
Texas will declare at the polls their VIII as 10
the proposed prohibition amendment to the
Constitution. The prohibition canvass in
Texas has been a peculiar one. The issue
has from the first had q disintegratiDg effect
on the democratic party in the State. In the
last ten years the democratic majority In
Texas has only twice fallen below 100, 600,
and IN 1884 Grover Cleveland had plurality
of 1872, I6O and a majority Of 1888 in
total vote of 325, 305, with four electoral tex
cts in the field. 1t is clear, then, that there
could be no serious contest in Texas unless
the conditions were so changed as virtually to
abolish party lines, but this is precisely what
the prohibition issue has done. For weeks
past two sets of democratic speakers have
been canvassing the State and denouncing
one another. The prohibition issue, which 1t
was at first thought would simply be buried
under an overwhelming adverse vote, has
already so split and demoralized the domi-
nant party that nobody familiar with the sit
uation feels it safe to make predictions as to
the outcome. Both sides profess confidence,
and both figure out modest majorities. But
neither can tell how the labor and colored
vote will 60, and upon that depends the re-
suit.
Some claim that the colored vote will be
cast almost solid against the amendment.
Others maintain that prohibition has made
much Roadway among the colored voters.
Like uncertainty exists as to the tendency OF
the labor vote, and little can oe gathered from
its disposal in other States or the direction
taken by labor organizations. So far as dis
cipline and systematic work are concerned
the anti-prohibtionists appear to be ahead.
They have not apparently suffered from want
of funds, whereas their opponents complain
that they have not been properly sustained.
What the prohibitionists have lacked in Or
ganization they have tried to make up for in
enthusiasm, but even here the other demo.
Gratis have scarcely been behind them, and
''red hot" is the only fit characterize
ton of the canvass on both sides.
As Texas has never until now been regarded
as favorable field for temperance expert
ments, the inference is inevitable that opinion
has undergone marked change in this
respect. 1t is clear that whatever the result
of the vote next Thursday may be, large
prohibition vote will be cast. "The Dallas
News" which is against the amendment, only
figures out an anti prohibition majority of
$4,000. Considering all the circumstances,
such an estimate implies the admission that
prohibition has made great progress in the
State. What effect the animosities engen.
dered in the present campaign will have upon
the Democratic party in Texas remains to be
seen, but it certainly cannot be strengthened
by the bitter ascension.

A TeetotaIer,s Champagne.

There has been recently introduced to the
American public, new champagne, which
has the striking merit of being entirely non
alcoholic, and yet as agreeable to taste as
foreign wines. The name of this new bev-
ersge is Lactart Champagne, prepared from
the celebrated Lactart-the acid of butter.
milk, which is said to be very beneficial to
digestion, while it is very healthful in all
other respects. Since the taste for drinks is
so widespread, beverage like the Lactart
Champagne, which is perfectly free from
alcohol, must be boon to thousands. espec-
tally as its pleasant taste and flavor can stand
comparison with the best of the imported
champsgnes. 1t needs, as in fact all cham
pagnes do to be taken directly off the ice,
and thoroughly cooled when served, as in
that way the vim and sparkle, and generally
invigorating qualities are most marked and
enjoyable. The sale of the Lactart Cham
payne is already very large. augldeod&wlw

A Hard Profession.

Old DR.. johnson once said addressing
class of medical students that the study of
medicine was most arduous undertaking
that the most comprehensive mind and the
most Industrious student could scarcely do
more than explore the portals to medical
knowledge during the brief time allotted to
study before commencing practice, but that
throughout his whole life the responsibilities
of his profession should rest upon him like
night mare.
He should explore every avenue of natural
knowledge, must become familiar with chem
istry, natural philosophy aud natural history,
but, above all, he must learn the construction
of his own frame, the means by which he
lives. moves and has his being. He must
understand the nature of all those influences
by which health is broken down and restored
and by what means disease, suffering and
death may be averted. DIR. johnson further
says that nothing contributes so much to the
support of quackery as the present INSULT
cheney of medical knowledge. Men do not,
he says, easily abandon hope but as readily
put faith in ignorant pretenders as drowning
men catch at straws.
1.-THE good that men do in this life lives
after them" During the life time of old DR..
Johnson he invented what is now known as
DR.. Johnsons Anodyne Llniment, a standard
family remedy of surprising
merit. This iniment is both for in
ternal and external use and it is safe to say
that no single remedy ever discovered has
done so much good as this one. 1t is mex
pensive. ready at moments notice night or
day and may be used with absolute confidence
in the thousand and one ailments that afflict
humanity. In the cure of severe cramps or
pains in the stomach or bowels, dysentery,
6iarrhea, acute or chronic, this liniment is a
sovereign remedy. In the case of chronic
diarrhea it is certainly worth its weight in
gold. 1t has been known to cure cases from
ten to fifteen years standing after the suffer-
ers had been given up.
